Neel starts to talk

See how he responds to Sim Sim talking to him...

Little Boy Blue.....

Little Boy Blue-that is your name, Neel. Neel means blue. You have finally started smiling, and not a moment too soon, because you were exasperating us with your spit-up. It got so bad for a few days that I nicknamed you barfy and tried to teach Simone to call you ‘barfy’. She found it funny because it sounded like her favorite sweet, ‘barfi’. Your smiles come fast and furious now, and they melt our hearts. You are also so alert, you look at everything and follow it with your eyes. Your eyes are just like your sister Simone. In some ways, you are a carbon copy of her. If you give us as much joy as Simone has given us, we are going to be very lucky parents.You have been a very good baby..the only thing you cry for is milk. And oh boy, do you drink a bunch of that. You routinely put away 24 ounces a day, and you look it. Where we used to panic with your sister, and she was a very fussy eater, you gulp down bottle after bottle. You also get milk from the Mommy Dairy on schedule and for a very long time. Your mother is just about caught up on her movie viewing. She gets in a good 45 minutes of TV time every time she feeds you. Makes me wonder if she is trying to keep you on mother’s milk for her own selfish entertainment reasons. But to me you will always be little Vir.
